Reborn back to the time before I sold my blood to support my scumbag boyfriend's college educat

A week later, the police still hadn't caught the murderer. During that time, Xia Yichu and Xu Shaoyang were called in for questioning twice. What puzzled Xia Yichu most was that neither the Song family nor the Zhou family had come looking for her.

It's Sunday. Xia Yichu is reading a book after feeding the cats and dogs. Xu Shaoyang is busy with the wasteland issue; the head of Yunsheng Group keeps asking him to dinner to discuss prices.

He often skipped school to go around researching market trends with his friends. Xia Yichu invested more money than him, and Xu Shaoyang said that the final price would definitely be decided by Xia Yichu.

Knock, knock, knock! Someone was knocking on Xia Yichu's door. She thought to herself, what's meant to happen will happen. She went out to open the door, and sure enough, it was the Song family and the Zhou family.

"Is there something you need?"

It was Song Wanying, Song Shengze, Song Shujiang, and Zhang Qingshan, the captain in charge of Zhou Shuyue's case. Song Wanying had lost a lot of weight and looked very weak; Song Shujiang was supporting her.

"Comrade Xia Yichu, may we go in and talk?" Zhang Qingshan said.

The others stood to one side, not saying a word. If Zhang Qingshan hadn't been there, Xia Yichu definitely wouldn't have let them into her house.

Come in.

"Woof woof woof..."

The puppy saw so many strangers come in and barked at them. It was quite cute, so tiny, with a cute but fierce expression as it barked.

"Mao Mao, don't shout, go play in the yard."

Mao Mao was the name Xia Yichu gave to the puppy, and the kitten was named Qiu Qiu. The puppy wagged its tail at Xia Yichu and walked away.

"Comrade Xia Yichu, you also keep a dog at home."

Zhang Qingshan liked dogs very much and wanted to have one, but he was too busy to raise one.

"Yes, please sit down."

Xia Yichu went to the kitchen to pour water, giving each of them a cup. Since she was living at home, she didn't release the water from her spatial storage; she would take it directly from her space whenever she needed water.

She boiled the water in the kitchen using tap water to serve guests who came to her house.

"What brings Captain Zhang to see me today? I've already told you everything I know."

"Xia Yichu, my daughter died a terrible death."

Song Wanying burst into tears as soon as she opened her mouth, saying the murderer still hadn't been caught. Zhang Qingshan suggested that Xia Yichu might know something, and offered to talk to her to see if she would be willing to reveal any clues.

"I know, but it wasn't me who caused it."

"Why didn't you call me that night? If..."

The police have ruled out Xia Yichu and Xu Shaoyang as suspects, and Song Wanying does not want to let the real culprit get away with it.

The police said that Song Wanying was killed by a man. Although it rained that night and many traces disappeared, half a footprint was found nearby.

It's definitely a man's footprint, but the area is too large and there are too few clues, making it difficult to find the murderer.

"Ms. Song, we don't know your home phone number. Besides, Zhou Shuyue ran away as soon as she heard she was going to make a phone call. It's no use questioning me about this now, and there are no 'what ifs'."

"Xia Yichu, do you know who the murderer is? Tell me quickly."

"I don't know, you've asked the wrong person."

Zhang Qingshan winked at Song Shengze, signaling him to keep an eye on Song Wanying and not let her speak. He hadn't approved of bringing her here in the first place, but she insisted on coming.

"Yichu, my sister just lost her daughter. She's anxious to find the killer and doesn't mean to blame or question you. Wanying, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll have Shujiang take you home."

"Mom, we're here today to ask Comrade Xia for help, so please be nicer."

"Big brother, Shujiang, I promise I won't say a word."

Song Wanying now had only one thought: she had to find the murderer, even if it meant kneeling down to Xia Yichu.

"Comrade Xia Yichu, you see, we investigated the schools in this area and found no suspicious persons."

Could you please help us think again about who would target Zhou Shuyue? Or did you see any suspicious people near your house that night?

"Captain Zhang, really, there isn't any."

Suddenly, Zhou Shujiang stood up and bowed to Xia Yichu: "I'm sorry, my little sister has caused you trouble."

I know your cousin even applied to graduate early because of this. It's all my sister's fault, and I apologize on her behalf.

Song Wanying looked at her eldest son with heartache, stubbornly holding back her words. Song Shengze, on the other hand, was very gratified; a true man can bend and stretch.

"Go back! I don't know anything."

Xia Yichu was filled with rage at the thought of Xiao Cheng dying at their hands in his past life. What good was an apology? Zhou Shuyue's accident was simply her bad luck.

"you…"

Song Wanying saw that even her eldest son had apologized on behalf of their daughter, yet Xia Yichu still didn't know what was good for her.

"mom"

Song Shujiang pulled his mother back, preventing her from speaking. Zhang Qingshan sighed and stood up, regretting that he should have come to find Xia Yichu himself.

"Comrade Yichu, sorry to bother you. Let's go back first. If you remember anything, just tell me at the police station."

As Song Wanying was being pulled along by Zhou Shujiang, they were almost out of the courtyard.

"Wait a minute, Captain Zhang, I want to ask you a question."

"You ask."

"Why would you think I know who the killer is, or that I have suspicions?"

When she went to the police station to give a statement, Zhang Qingshan kept asking her, intentionally or unintentionally, who was most likely to kill Zhou Shuyue.

"My intuition tells me you should know something."

A colleague said there was a high possibility that Zhou Shuyue was murdered by a stranger, such as being attracted by her looks or money.

Because Zhou Shuyue's valuables were all gone, and her top had been taken off, leaving her with only one piece of clothing.

However, Zhang Qingshan didn't think so, even though he had no evidence, only intuition. He had solved many cases based on intuition, and now he urgently needed Xia Yichu to provide clues.

Have you investigated Chen Shaoping?

"Yes, he didn't have the time to commit the crime. That night he was drinking and acting crazy at home. The neighbors can testify that he was in a bad mood because his girlfriend left him and he drank heavily every night."

When Zhou Shuyue got into trouble, they immediately started investigating the people around her. Everyone connected to her and in Shenzhen was questioned.

"If I remember correctly, it rained for a while after Zhou Shuyue left, and then it rained heavily again."

When Xu Shaoyang left my house, it was still raining. With the rain so heavy, are you sure Chen Shaoping's neighbors can guarantee he was drinking at home the whole time?

Let me make this clear first: I'm only raising a reasonable question; you'll need to investigate further. Don't come looking for trouble if I'm wrong later.

"Don't worry, you're just providing us with clues. As for whether it's true or not, we'll investigate and find out. We won't hold you responsible."

"Dean Song, I'll go check with Chen Shaoping and his neighbors again. You all go back first; leave this to me. I'll definitely investigate thoroughly and won't let the murderer get away with it."

Xia Yichu saw that Zhang Qingshan had listened to what she said, so she closed the door and went inside. She didn't want to see Song Wanying and the others.

Compared to the Song and Zhou families, she wanted Chen Shaoping dead even more. So, she finally called out to Zhang Qingshan, as she had originally intended to find a time to talk to him about it.

After Zhou Shuyue's incident, she asked Wang Zhijie to inquire about Chen Shaoping's recent activities. Wang Zhijie told her that Chen Shaoping had been gambling and had lost a lot of money, owing others a lot of money.

Furthermore, given that Zhou Shuyue died at his hands in her previous life, and based on her understanding of Chen Shaoping, there's at least an 80% chance, if not 100%, that Zhou Shuyue died at his hands.

It is said that Yang Mengru was driven away by him, and he had no source of income. It is possible that Zhou Shuyue went to him that night to ask about Xiao Cheng.

The two had a falling out, and then Chen Shaoping, in a fit of rage, accidentally killed Zhou Shuyue. Of course, this is just Xia Yichu's speculation; only Chen Shaoping himself knows the truth.
